    I want to learn French to work in Quebec, but there aren't many Quebecois softwares/teachers/language partners online--except paid ones $$$. Should I bite the bullet and pay specifically for Quebecois lessons, or is it ok to learn Parisian French/some other French for free?

    Hello! My name is Elizabeth, and I want to learn French in order to get a job in Quebec. I'm just starting out with the very basics. I think the best way to learn is to speak, so I would absolutely love to do a language exchange with a native Quebecois--though any native French speaker would be great! English is my native language, and I work as a biologist/writer, so I can help with plenty of technical/scientific/copywriting English advice. I know that many French speaking countries are also quite proficient in English, so if you aren't interested in an English/French language exchange, I could also offer Spanish tutoring, as I have many years of experience in Spanish, as well. Please message me if you are interested!

    Is the female version of "peluchin" peluchina? I searched "peluchina" on google and found a few memes that used the name "peluchina," which I assume is the female version of "peluchin," which I take to be a dog's name that approximately translates to "fluffy." Is this true?

    Best Way to Practice Listening? From traveling in Spain I've noticed that I have many problems with hearing/parsing out words and phrases in a conversation--even more problems than I have with speaking. I've heard of many cool Spanish movies to watch, and I already have access to plenty of songs from Latin America, but what's the best way to use them? 1) Listen to songs while reading along to Spanish lyrics. 2) Listen to songs without any lyrics or help. 3) Listen to songs while reading the English summary. 4) Watch movies in English first and then in Spanish 5) Watch movies in Spanish with English subtitles 6) Watch movies in Spanish with Spanish subtitles 7) Watch movies without any subtitles or help. I feel like seeing the Spanish words/lyrics written out while listening would help me learn what those words sound like in conversation, but at the same time I don't want to cheat myself by using a crutch: eventually I need to be where I can understand without a written transcription. Which method(s) should I use?

F except: I study French every day except Friday. even though: “I bought it even though it was expensive.” anyway: “I can’t speak German fluently, but I will speak it anyway. might: “He might be hungry.” often: “I often wonder if I made the right choice.” so/therefore: “I have more energy in the morning, so that’s when I exercise.” until: “I want to study Cantonese until I’m fluent.” since: “I’ve wanted to travel to Australia since I was nine.” still: “I’m not young, but I still enjoy learning new things.” instead of: “Do you want to eat sushi instead of Italian food?” throughout: “There are many festivals here throughout the year.” including: “All languages can be easy to learn, including tonal languages.” in case: “Take my umbrella in case it rains.” even if: “I want to travel, even if it’s for a short time.”

    Adopted French phrases having to do with writing/books? I really don't know how to search for this, because my good friend Google isn't helping. There seem to be a bunch of French phrases having to do with writing that we've adopted in English: nom de plume, roman de clef, etc. Could someone tell me more of these? Finding out the etymology of "roman de clef" just blew my mind, so I'm curious to find more like these.
